OLSCC Agriculture students have been on the move in the past two weeks. In Week 8, our Year 12 Agriculture students attended FarmFest where they gained familiarity with a large range of agricultural businesses and innovative agricultural resources. Each student enjoyed a fun day out while expanding their knowledge in the agricultural space. In Week 9, our Year 9 Agriculture students were taken on a tour through Queensland Cotton’s Dalby Gin. Students were able to see the process of ginning (separating cotton lint from seed and trash) and how the ginned cotton is compressed into bales. The students were lucky enough to be given a handful of cotton each to feel and play with. They all enjoyed a great morning.
